Chapter 315: This Is Not the Plot I Imagined
After lunch, everyone returned to the living room, because there was a harmonious atmosphere of chatting in the morning.
And Hosset, they also have a preliminary understanding of Xu Qing's character, they are not stupid people, but very smart.
They could see that Xu Qing was deliberately driving the atmosphere of chatting in the morning, and they also saw Sophia's expression.
So this time in the living room chat, they stammered and nervous a lot, although there was still a little, but it was much better than in the morning.
Xu Qing took the initiative to ask them about their work, because most of the relatives who came to Sophia's house today worked in Sophia's parents' company.
So the questions they said were all about Sophia's parents' company.
They didn't hide it, they didn't deliberately exaggerate, they just said the problems that the company is currently encountering.
Sophia's parents ran a trading company, mainly selling foreign goods in the United States.
Due to the strength of their company, the goods they sell are basically less profitable goods, and the scale is also very small, with an average annual profit of about 3.4 million US dollars.
Well, it's really small.
They hope that Xu Qing can let their company get some relatively high-profit goods, and it doesn't take too much, and the profit can be maintained at about one million dollars a year.
Xu Qing was a little surprised when he heard their request.
Before coming, hearing Sophia's conflict with her parents, Xu Qing thought that they would propose a profit of at least 10 million US dollars a year.
If they really made such a request, Xu Qing would agree.
It's not that Xu Qing is a bad person, but Xu Qing wants to comfort Sophia.
When Hosset made such a request, it showed that they had regarded Xu Qing as a cash cow and Sophia as a tool for profit.
Sophia will definitely be very sad to see her parents behaving like this.
Of course, Xu Qing could refuse Hosset's request, but Xu Qing wanted to comfort Sophia more, even if it was in this way.
However, the relationship between the two parties may also be limited to this.
Of course, if Hosset and they wanted more benefits and wanted to make an inch, Xu Qing would not agree, where to stay cool.
Seeing Xu Qing's expression, Hosset sighed:
"You must have thought that I would ask for a lot of money, to be honest, if it was me and Natalie in the past, I would definitely ask you to come up with a large sum of money before you agreed to be with Sophia.
But since Sophia went to New York to go to college, and then stayed in New York to work after graduation, she has almost no time to communicate with us.
We're already reflecting on our actions, and over the years, we've realized how stupid our actions were.
Sophia is not a vassal of me and Natalie, she is an individual with a mind of her own, she is our only child, and we should not force her to do things she doesn't like.
In the past two years, Natalie and I wanted to ease relations with Sophia, but unfortunately the conflict was too deep at the beginning, Sophia didn't meet with us, and the phone only talked a few words before hanging up.
Then I wanted to write to Sofitel, or contact Sophia through her friends, or you, but we thought about it and eventually gave up on those acts.
We felt that when Sophia brought you to meet us for the first time, it was the best opportunity to ease the relationship.
We can come face to face, and in your witness, Natalie and I want to say sorry to Sophia for hurting you for your stupid actions in the first place. ”
After Hossett finished speaking, he and Natalie said sorry to Sophia, and Sophia's tears immediately flowed.
Sophia walked over to her mother and hugged each other.
Xu Qing was stunned, what kind of plot is this?
Hosset and Natalie apologize to Sophia, and the relationship eases.
This is different from what Xu Qing imagined!
What Xu Qing imagined was that Hosset and Natalie asked Xu Qing to come up with a large amount of money as the cost of Sophia and Xu Qing being together.
Xu Qing didn't know if what Hosset said was true, or if he was confusing Xu Qing and Sophia.
However, judging from the expression, tone, and actions, there is a high probability that it is true, and Xu Qing also hopes that it is true.
Xu Qing didn't want Sophia's relationship with her parents to be stiff.
Xu Qing waited for Sophia and her parents to stabilize a bit, then smiled: "As Sophia's boyfriend, I'm very happy to see your relationship resume as before.
I was heartbroken to see that Sophia was always reluctant to mention her parents and would be in pain from time to time, but now it is a great thing for everyone to see your relationship return to the same state. ”
may be the reason for untying the entanglement in his heart, Hosette heard Xu Qing's words, and laughed: "We are happier that Sophia can forgive us, before we were worried that Sophia would still be angry with us." ”
Xu Qing smiled slightly: "This should be the reason why I was here, because Sophia listened to me the most, and I told her before I came that I wanted to ease the relationship with you today."
Now that your relationship has really eased, I still have a lot of credit for it. ”
Sophia left Natalie's embrace and glared at Xu Qing: "Who do you say to listen to whom the most?!"
Xu Qing immediately sneered: "I listen to you the most." ”
"Hmm. Sophia expressed satisfaction with Xu Qing's answer.
After Xu Qing and Sophia's gag dialogue, everyone's chat atmosphere relaxed.
Xu Qing talked back about the problem of the trading company just now, and Hosset expressed his helplessness to him, and many of his and Natalie's relatives came to work in their company.
If their company is not doing well, or even going out of business, then those relatives of him and Natalie will be miserable.
Xu Qing can understand the helplessness of Hosset and Natalie, and Xu Qing in his previous life also encountered similar problems.
In his previous life, Xu Qing became a middle-level manager of a medium-sized company, and his annual salary was hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Then some of his relatives approached Xu Qing, hoping that Xu Qing could arrange for them to join the company or introduce them to other jobs.
Some relatives Xu Qing can refuse, and some can't, because some people have helped Xu Qing during his growth, and the result is that Xu Qing has to find jobs for several relatives every year.
Who made Xu Qing a powerful person in the eyes of these relatives, with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, for the vast majority of relatives living in remote rural areas, he is a powerful person.
Fortunately, Xu Qing in this life has no brothers and sisters, and no other relatives.
Otherwise, Xu Qing may have to fight with her brothers and sisters for the family property and arrange the work of relatives.
Xu Qing is not a kind person, but when too many such things come up, he will go crazy.
Xu Qing thought about the trading company problem that Hossett said, and felt that he couldn't simply let the trading company increase high-profit goods.
He wants to enter the international trade industry, which is what Xu Qing has always had.
It's just that for some reasons, Xu Qing has not entered.
Perhaps Hosset's trading company could be used as a starting point to enter the international trade industry.
